The Effect of Contact Angle on Dynamics of Dry Spots Spreading in a Horizontal Layer of Liquid at Local Heating

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2015
The effect of equilibrium contact angle on dynamics of dry spot spreading at disruption of a horizontal water layer heated locally from the substrate was studied using the high-speed Schlieren technique.

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

A Pressure Wave-Based Approach for Assessing Evolving Disruption Risks in Cluster Supply Chain Under Bidirectional Propagation

open access: yesIEEE Access
Supply chain (SC) disruption risk assessment has attracted extensive attention, yet important gaps remain. Existing studies typically examine either forward or backward propagation, whereas in reality disruptions can spread simultaneously in both ...

Protostellar Outflow Evolution in Turbulent Environments

open access: yes, 2008
The link between turbulence in star formatting environments and protostellar jets remains controversial. To explore issues of turbulence and fossil cavities driven by young stellar outflows we present a series of numerical simulations tracking the ...

Turbulent Chemical Diffusion in Convectively Bounded Carbon Flames [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
It has been proposed that mixing induced by convective overshoot can disrupt the inward propagation of carbon deflagrations in super-asymptotic giant branch stars.

Structural instability impairs function of the UDP‐xylose synthase 1 Ile181Asn variant associated with short‐stature genetic syndrome in humans

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...

Risk propagation in heterogeneous supply-chain networks using a SEIS-based multi-state disruption model

open access: yesFrontiers in Sustainability
IntroductionTransport and supply chain systems are composed of interconnected components, making them susceptible to disruptions that affect system stability and resilience.

Building network-level resilience to resource disruption from flooding: Case studies from the Shetland Islands and Hurricane Sandy

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2016
Flood events, at a range of scales, have led to disruption of resources such as water, food, materials and goods are vital to the safety, health and livelihoods of individuals and communities.

A model study of corona emission from hydrometeors [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
The maximum measured electric fields in thunderclouds are an order of magnitude less than the fields required for electric breakdown of the air. One explanation for lightning initiation in these low fields is that electric breakdown first occurs at the ...

Transcriptional network analysis of PTEN‐protein‐deficient prostate tumors reveals robust stromal reprogramming and signs of senescent paracrine communication

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Combining PTEN protein assessment and transcriptomic profiling of prostate tumors, we uncovered a network enriched in senescence and extracellular matrix (ECM) programs associated with PTEN loss and conserved in a mouse model. We show that PTEN‐deficient cells trigger paracrine remodeling of the surrounding stroma and this information could help ...
